Yeah topic sounds dumb, I assure you it isn't. let me explain. My 2014 S 85 (non P/D) wouldn't start 3 weeks ago. I had to have it towed to the shop, car was throwing a ton of warnings, and roadside service said the 12V wasn't seeing the HV pack. 3 weeks later, I get the car back, except now both my mobile app, and the in-dash info screen show the car as a "90" instead of an "85". The reason for this is that there was some issue with my battery pack (fortunately under warranty), so they installed a "new" (likely refurbished) pack in. I thought I was going to be getting an 85, but it seems as if i got a 90 kWh pack instead. The service rep couldn't tell me for sure, and when I fully charge to 100%, I'm getting 265miles (same as the 85), so I'm thinking one of two things...either I have a 90 and they software locked it to 85, or I have a 90 pack that was gimped of some cells to make it an 85... I don't know enough about the makeup of the battery trays to know if they can remove part of one pack (I do know the whole pack is made up of a bunch of smaller units though). The fact that both the car and the mobile app think i I have a 90kwh S, makes me think it is indeed a 90 now...which would be a snowflake since it seems that they never made any 90kwh non-d models around 2014.
Any thoughts? I'm tempted to call service and ask if they can unlock the car, but wondering first what I might indeed have.
